Crafty Card Gallery Sketch Hop Day 2

Welcome to day 2 of the Blog Hop! I hope everyone is having a great weekend! Here is another card for the challenge! I took the card sketch itself as inspiration to make this one, the banner at the top of the sketch i managed to find some banner paper, then used the cloud as the sentiment part, and turned it into a square card instead of a rectangle! I used Kaisercraft's Fine and Sunny papers and stamps to create the card. I hope you are enjoying the hop! Please excuse the bad photo, it's late here in Australia :)

Your next stop is Shawn. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Scrapping!

Crafty Card Gallery Sketch Blog Hop

Welcome to the sketch blog hop! Everyone has had so much fun doing these it's turned into a regular event!

The purpose of this hop is to show how all of these talented bloggers can take the same sketch and come up with totally different cards. If you've never used a card sketch before, give it a try! You should have arrived from Ashley's Blog and if you just happened to land on this blog you can go back to the start at Crafty Card Gallery

Enjoy the hop!

This is the sketch that we got given to work with

and this is the card I came up with!

A simple and easy card for Father's Day. The paper used was from the new KAISERCRAFT collection Sears and Son. I love this collection and can see it becoming one of my favorites for scrapping older male pictures and cards.

Please stop by again tomorrow where i will have another creation for you. For now continue the hop and pop along to Zenita's Blog

Happy Scrapping

Sketch Blog Hop-Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of the Sketch Blog hop with Crafty Card Gallery. If you have come from http://scrappinwithz.blogspot.com/ then you are in the right place!

It has been a long day here (i'm in Australia and as i'm typing this it is Sunday night :)) and have not had much  time again for crafting or cards! So another card has been made in a quick time! This card is using one of my favorite kids collections at the moment Tiny Woods by Kaisercraft. I used the 6x6 pad, an awesome size for making quick and easy cards when in a hurry. So here is my card......

Next stop is http://thebloghopprincess.blogspot.com/

Sketch Blog Hop Day One

Welcome to the Sketch Blog Hop. Everyone has had so much fun doing these it's turned into a regular event! The purpose of this hop is to show how all of these talented bloggers can take the same sketch and come up with totally different cards. If you've never used a card sketch before, give it a try! You should have arrived from http://scrappinwithz.blogspot.com/ and if you just happened along the hop, you can go back to the start at www.craftycardgallery.blogspot​.com Enjoy the hop!

This month has been such a mad rush with a sale going on at my store and my daily tasks of looking after children and work has left little time to complete any cards or projects...and that is what i love about sketches! The card I have for you today has just been completed in 10 mins (in fact the glue under the flowers is still drying!) Sketches make things so much easier when you just don't have the time to think, but allows you to put something that looks creative together with your own style. so here is what we had to start with

and here is my final card using the sketch from above (please excuse the bad photo..it is 7.30pm here in Australia) as usual i can't keep exactly to the sketch and have used it only as a guide.

Hopefully i will find some time to create another card for you all tomorrow that is not as "quick" as this one! Your next stop on the blog hop is Ashley http://thebloghopprincess.blogspot.com/

Mini Sewing Album

A few weeks ago I took part in a swap, the theme was sewing. This is the mini album I made for the person I swapped with! I was so happy how it came out

Materials: kaiser charlottes dream paper pad, dress form and sewing machine.

I covered the tags with sewing pattern instructions and the flower I made was using the pattern. A great way to use old patterns up!

Teabag Folding

Teabag Folding - a technique that I have been wanting to try for sometime now, and I decided that I would give it a go! I have so many scraps that this was perfect for what I needed to do! I just love the way it turned out as well, and the fact that it was so quick to make was even better!

I have set myself a challenge at the moment, to make cards only using scraps, I can't wait to see how many I can make!

Until next time
